I have to download the internal table contents to an excel file when the report is execeuted in BACKGROUND.The excel file should also have the header.I have tried with function module SAP_CONVERT_TO_XLS_FORMAT but i am not getting header details in excel file.

There is no specific FM that will download the data from intrenal table into excel with header line,you first need to enter the data in the intrenal table that needs to be downloaded with the header line at index one with all the rest data aftrewards and then download that intrenal table using any of the FM.

i saw your post , i am facing the same problem which you faced long back, i am using 4.6c and need to download in excel both header and data, it not getting getting populated . how did you resolve this issue.

You need to have 2 different internal tables for achieving the needful. One internal table would be having your data and another would store your table field names i.e., declare a structure of length 100 characters,

I tried yours but it is throughing some debug error while calling the function module. if running with out eheader it is working fine. I created the header as you suggested but still creating problem. can you suggest what may be reason.

When I using the gui download by creating a internal table for header line, I am getting all the data in one coloumn of excel, but my requirement is to get the header data as each coloumn for each internal field.

We are not authorised to write the heder line manually. If you have any idea please suggest me. I have one header table and one data table but both the table record lengths are different. How to work on this,

I want to show heading in the first line of the excel and then 2 - 3 blank lines and then next line should be populated with DATE and Exec. Time, then 2-3 blank lines , then the data with the header description to be displayed.

Hi Sabu, Just try this way.REPORT ztest_notepad.DATA: BEGIN OF it_t001 OCCURS 0, bukrs TYPE t001-bukrs, butxt TYPE t001-butxt, ort01 TYPE t001-ort01, END OF it_t001.DATA: BEGIN OF it_head OCCURS 0, bukrs TYPE string, butxt TYPE string, ort01 TYPE string, END OF it_head.START-OF-SELECTION. SELECT * FROM t001 INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE it_t001 UP TO 10 ROWS. it_head-bukrs = 'Company Code'. it_head-butxt = 'Name of Company Code or Company'. it_head-ort01 = 'City'. APPEND it_head. CLEAR it_head. "Download headers first CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD' EXPORTING filename = 'C:/t001.xls' filetype = 'ASC' append = space TABLES data_tab = it_head. "Download data to the same file with APPEND = 'X' CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD' EXPORTING filename = 'C:/t001.xls' filetype = 'ASC' append = 'X' TABLES data_tab = it_t001.ThanksVenkat.O

I am trying to find a way to dynamically update the column header names in a tabular table visual as soon as possible. Currently, I have a table called Product and it has a lot of columns where some of their column names need to get dynamically updated every month/quarter. I was able to write some M codes in the query editor to dynamically change column header names there and apply the changes, but I failed to find a way to do the same outside of query editor in the table visual.

Based on my research, I learned that there is currently no such feature to dynamically change the column header names inside the table visual (please correct me if my understanding is wrong). I also looked into options of using matrix by unpivoting the columns first inside query editor and pivoting them inside matrix in the table. However, in my scenario, I don't think matrix is a doable option for me because matrix can only do one column's pivoting at the same time but I have multiple columns that I need to pivot.

I have a requirement to download internal table to excel sheet including header.In my method cl_gui_fronted_services=>gui_download I used file type DBF. But when I download data to presentation sever header field names truncated to 10 characters. Anyone could you please suggest how to get full length header using file type DBF.

I guess the header field name in dbf file is kind of a column name in the table and the length of that is 10. That is the reason why you were not able to create the header with more than 10 characters.

Thanks everyone.. I solved the issue. I used file format 'DAT' for downloading internal table data to Excel including Header having Field length more than 10 characters..When I download internal table data to Excel sheet the fields which consists '#' causes the data corruption.

Another question is i want name of database table in Which SAP stores DDIC object name and its property, so that i can write Select * from ' ' where .... For example i have table ZABC with three fields so i need In which table it stores ZABC as table and a table in which it stores Its field name.

Why dont u use GUI_DOWNLOAD it gives you the option to specify the filename. As for the header is concerned there are two ways you can pass the same using the above...1. append the header into your internal table as the first row OR 2. specify the filetype as DBF and use the fieldname internal table.

I am able to upload the file using the open dataset and transfer in text format with out colum headings .But i want to upload theinternal table to Application server not to presentaton server with the Column headings in Excel Format.

You can try with this program.by using this u can create new excel sheet with the content of existing notepad or ecxel sheet i.e. in the output its asking file upload then u can upload notepad data or excel sheet data.

Just for the convenience of the user and ABAPer, I request you to provide an FM to exclude the 4 headlines of the excel sheet. FM: TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP works but won't exclude the all the 4 header lines

I had once this requirement, and the only way to achieve it was to populate an internal table with the header in one row and the data in the following rows, and then download this itab via 'GUI_DOWNLOAD' as text separated by tabs.

I have a problem in getting the header line from the database table to internal table. This is for generating the report in excel sheet from the internal table with header. I dont want hard code since it to be dynamically pass the table everytime. so that the internal table must get the headerline from the database table passed.

Thanks for your immediate reply, but my question is like how to get the header of the tables (column head - like Name, Age). As of now i am getting the valuesof the entire table, but the header is not coming. Can you suggest me the possible ways of getting the header.

Try uploading the data to an internal table having single field of type STRING. Since it is considered as string, you wont have problem in uploading the data. After the data is received into the internal table, you can delete the first two rows and proceed with futher processing of the data.

URL Rewrite Module 2.0 provides support for rules-based rewriting of the response HTTP headers. A very common usage scenario for setting the response headers is to modify the redirection response generated by an application behind a load balancer or a reverse proxy. For example, when an application behind a reverse proxy returns a redirect response, the HTTP Location header in the response may not represent the internet-facing address, but rather an internal application address. URL Rewrite Module 2.0 can be used on the reverse proxy server to modify the Location header in the response. The scenario is represented on the following diagram:

Now open a web browser and make a request Notice that the browser got redirected to :8081/default.aspx, which is basically an internal URL used by the webmail web application. Now you'll configure the URL Rewrite rules to modify the HTTP Location header in the HTTP redirection responses so that the browser is redirected to a proper URL:

This chapter describes how to steer tables with Tosca TBox. You can find examples of common use cases at the end of this topic. For detailed information on how to edit tables via the Table Steering Editor, please refer to chapter "Edit tables with the table steering editor".

Some columns of a table may be entirely filled with standard data such as currency or date values. Cells of these columns however need not contain any relevant data. Columns which contain crucial data are referred to as Decisive Columns in Tosca.

Use the parameter DecisiveColumns of a table attribute to define one or more decisive columns. Several values are specified by separating them with semicolons (see "Example 9 - Steering controls with decisive columns").

INTERNAL TABLE are used to obtain data from a fixed structure for dynamic use in ABAP. Each line in the internal table has the same field structure. The main use for internal tables is for storing and formatting data from a database table within a program.

An internal table itab is created with the structure of line.Besides declaring the structure of an internal table, the OCCURS clause also defines how many table entries are maintained in main storage(in this case 10). Extra records are written out to paging area and can effect performance

Initial lines adds a line initialized with the correct value for its type to the table. Here , col1 is an character and col2 is a integer. Then APPEND initial line, adds a line initialized with respect to the data type of the columns, i.e. space for col1 and 0 for col2.

Incase of tables with Header line, INTO option is omitted. Suppose there is already an entry having a key same as the one you are trying to append, then a new line is not added to the table, but the numeric fields of both the entries are added and only one entry corresponding to the key is present. Value of SY-TABIX is changed to the row of the original entry. Else COLLECT acts similar to APPEND and SY-TABIX contains the index of the processed line.
